Eastern Railroad Discussion > Some January pics from around Harrisburg

It's been a relatively boring winter around Harrisburg and Central PA weather-wise, January brought just a couple small snow falls which didn't last long, not much of anything in February, lots of grey skies and rain, and somewhat mild temperatures.  Rail activity has been kind of bland too, the usual occasional Heritage unit appearance every couple days spicing things up just a bit.   Since I did get out a handful of times to do some photography,  I figured I'd share a few of the pictures here.

1.  1/10 - 66T headed for Enola on G track in Marysville
2.  1/20 - 777 empty coal hoppers on the Lurgan over the Susquehanna River stopped momentarily at CP-FRONT STREET
3.  1/20 - 20K heading for the fuel pad at Linglestown Rd.
